"The GNU C (glibc) strxfrm() function is prone to a remote
integer-overflow vulnerability that leads to buffer overflow
vulnerability.

The GNU C (glibc) strcoll() function is prone to a stack-based
buffer-overflow vulnerability.

Impact

A locally authenticated attacker could run code that exposes the
security flaws in glibc. The BIG-IP code contains the vulnerable
functions; however, the functions are not used in a manner that
exposes the vulnerabilities in the default configuration."
